A 15-year-old boy named "Junubi" has been arraigned in a US court on charges of stealing some items from a department store. While the theft case was being debated in court, the judge asked the boy, "Did you really steal from the store?" The boy said yes, I stole it! A packet of bread and a packet of cheese! The judge retorted, "Why did you steal?" The boy said I needed it! The judge asked again, "Should You have bought it?" The boy said I had no money! Should you have asked at home? The boy replied - only my mother and I stay at home! Mother is sick, unable to work! I worked in a motor workshop and fed my mother! But my mother's health was deteriorating. I asked my boss for leave to take care of my mother, but she fired me! The judge said you had to ask for money from others to buy bread, didn't you? I stood on the street and requested with more than 50 people before stealing the bread! No one helped! In the end, in order to satisfy the hunger of the sick mother, I was forced to steal!
Thus the whole cross-examination, after all, the counterclaim was over! Then the judge began to pronounce his verdict! "We are all responsible for the child's crime," he said. We are the culprits, not the children! Therefore, every person present in the bench of this court, including me, during the hearing, has to pay a fine of 10 dollars and I will issue an order to give that amount to the accused child Junubi! '
The judge added, "In any system of governance, the people should have the right to food and medical treatment!" That is the responsibility of the government and the capable people of the society! '
